Download or read book Asset Management Implementation Plan and Tiered System Process written by Michael J. Markow and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study has developed a five-year transportation asset management plan for the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). This study has also developed a proposed tiering structure of the state highway system to support asset management. Asset management represents a strategic approach to managing transportation infrastructure. It embodies a set of principles to improve how an agency conducts business, how it reaches decisions, and how it processes, uses, and communicates information. CDOT, in consultation with the Colorado Transportation Commission, has already taken a number of steps toward improved asset management. A unique Investment Category approach organizes program investments within a policy-oriented framework incorporating explicit measures of performance. Other steps taken by CDOT include updates of the statewide planning process and the program prioritization process, establishment of maintenance program levels of service, institution of customer surveys, and updates of relevant information technology applications. The recommended transportation asset management plan builds upon these established concepts, methods, information, and tools to propose specific actions over the next five years in the following areas: (1) completion of all elements of the Investment Category structure; (2) incorporation of asset management principles in CDOT's planning and programming processes, building on a tiered structuring of CDOT assets that has also been recommended in this study; (3) integration of asset management information on a GIS platform, and renewal of Information Technology strategic planning to support asset management department-wide; and (4) strengthening of program delivery mechanisms and measures. The recommended tiering of the state highway system is built around the concept of interregional corridors, because CDOT is the sole provider of significant interregional highway transportation.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Roadway infrastructure within the United States includes features such as roads, bridges, signs, pavement markings, traffic signals, support commerce and mobility, and is, in essence, a shared financial public resource worthy of being managed at the highest level of efficiency. State departments of transportation (DOTs), local transportation authorities, and federal agencies responsible for the fiscal management of the transportation system have shown a growing interest in advancing the state of practice in managing these critical assets. In addition, the recent congressional passage of Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21 Act) has established an outcome-driven, performance-tracking approach that will hold states and metropolitan planning organizations accountable for improving the conditions and performance of their transportation assets. It will therefore increase agency attentiveness to these vital issues. Transportation Asset Management (AM) is a strategic and systematic process of operating, maintaining, upgrading, and expanding physical assets effectively throughout their life cycle. It focuses on business and engineering practices for resource allocation and utilization, with the objective of better decision making based on quality information and well-defined objectives. Advancing AM capabilities and integrating these capabilities across an organization's business units requires self-assessment, alignment, goal setting, and support. This synthesis of transportation asset management practice among state highway agencies will be a timely resource for agencies to identify their current state of practice and determine where they will direct their AM efforts. This synthesis is based on two separate surveys, with additional input from practitioners. The initial survey requested that participants conduct a self-assessment to characterize their agency's AM practices....The self-assessment results reflect current and future (5-year) business practices and the agencies' institutional, organizational, financial, and IT environments. This survey yielded 18 DOT participant responses (see Appendix D). Based on the results of the initial survey, and input from the Topic Panel, a second survey was designed to capture the state of practice and forward looking expectations (for the next 3 to 5 years) among state DOTs. Forty-three agencies participated in this second survey."--p. 1.

Book excerpt: Transportation Asset Management (TAM) is a strategic approach to maximize the benefits from resources used to operate, expand, and preserve the transportation infrastructure. It takes a long-term perspective of infrastructure performance and cost, and considers investment options in a comprehensive and informed way. TAM integrates the various disciplines related to infrastructure management, including planning, engineering, economics, and budgeting. It is systematic and fact based, and therefore dependent on good information and analytical capabilities. Economic analysis plays a critical role in TAM by facilitating tradeoff analysis, in which the net benefits of competing investment options are compared in terms of their "dollars and cents" impact on the public. Information from the analysis feeds back to planners and engineers, allowing them to identify the most beneficial investments.
Download or read book Best Practices in Geographic Information Systems based Transportation Asset Management written by Jessica Hector-Hsu and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Maps are powerful tools. They orient. They guide. They provide a sense of scale and distance. They are a universal language, accessible to people from different personal and professional backgrounds. In a transportation planning context, maps provide a flexible canvas for communicating important information such as the location of structurally deficient bridges and proposals for future improvement projects. / Geographic information systems (GIS), which are modern mapping technologies, allow transportation agencies to harness the power of maps more quickly and inexpensively than ever before. Agencies can use GIS to visualize information about their bridges, highways, and other assets. They can also use GIS to plan maintenance trips and evaluation design alternatives to manage their assets more effectively. Maps are becoming commonly used in transportation asset management (TAM) programs that help agencies to strategically invest in their infrastructure. GIS, when applied to TAM, can help agencies communicate technical information more simply, professionally, and persuasively. / This report provides background on GIS and asset management, describes how public agencies have been integrating the two, and identifies benefits and challenges to doing so. The information presented is gleaned from a literature review and interviews with several state departments of transportation (DOTs) and one county agency. The report also identifies some leading industry trends and new, innovative approaches to using GIS for TAM."--Executive Summary (page ES-1).
